My cousin just moved her and her son into a 2 bedroom apart that I have to say is really nice and its huge on top of that. but heres the problem she has a huge dog his name is winston like winston churchill and he doesnt seem to have enough room i mean he is HUGE and its 3 flights of stairs to take him back and forth to the bathroom I tried to tell her that she should find him a good home where he would have to room to run and play with kids he LOVES kids. He's an English Sheepdog and loves to herd and he does that with the children playing in the yard. hes very protective over the kids and watches them like a hawk hes alomost like a babysitter when they are outside or in. him and my one year old son grew up together and he watches gradyn like a hawk if he sees him doing something that could be dangerous he ether gets me or my cousin or if its safe grabs his shirt and pulls him away from whatever it is. so i need help convincing her that she needs to let him go no matter how much she loves him but she needs to do what is best or him!

I hate to say this but this has to be her decision and if she feels that she can care for him and can take him on walks and make him comfortable and happy that is her business. I have had many big dogs growning up living in apartments and town houses. It all about the time you spend exercising them and playing with them. I agree that a big animal should have a yard and a place to run but say your cousin takes him walks all the time and to a park or even a dog park that doesn't mean just because she moved into a smaller place that she needs to get rid of him. As long as she cares for him and exercises him and can afford him it's her business. If you convince her to get rid of her family member and she regrets it she will be very upset with you and may even blame you. You need to let her come to the decision on her own about what is best for her family member.
